Hello! My name is Bryon Howard with RE / Max House of Real Estate. I would like to talk to you today about home safety.

When my buyers buy a property, I want to make sure they’re safe and that they buy a home that is in good condition. One of the very first things we do before buying a home is perform a home inspection. During a home inspection, the inspector will make sure that the home is structurally sound and will identify any issues that you will need to address in the future.

Day one of moving into your new home you will want to change the locks. Because there may be some other keys in the past tenants family and friend’s hands, you want to be sure that your doors have fresh locks, as well as your gates and windows. Don’t forget to change the codes for any electronic keypads – and consistent in changing that code every six months.

After you get settled in, it may be a good idea to install some perimeter lighting around your home and leave them on throughout the night. If your front door doesn’t have a chain or peephole, get one.

The last thing you need to do to stay safe in your home is to make sure that your home is insured against floods, fires and any other natural disaster.

After taking a recommendation from a friend - we hired the wrong realtor who way over priced us.....so we took the recommendation of another friend for a realtor....who never answered questions, was not available, who still had us overpriced....so the 3rd time being a charm, we hired Bryon Howard because he lived in the area we were selling in. I told Bryon upfront, we've had it with inflated prices to get business and realtors that are unavailable to answer questions, update us on showings etc. He agreed that isn't the way a good realtor does business and then set off to prove it. He was honest. We'd missed our best market. We were in a unique property and he contacted all aspects of the market that would use that property in different ways - own, rent, demolish for the lot. We weren't put in a single niche. We received timely information about showings and feedback, and honesty about our position but also positive options. We felt Bryon was enthusiastic and eager, always upbeat and above all, Bryon Howard is honest. He is not a person who is going to tell you what you want to hear to get your business and then drop a bombshell! He's straight forward.

I am on my 3rd recommendation for Bryon! The first being a good friend who thought he could never afford to own a house and Bryon showed him how it could happen! The second a lady who needed advise in purchasing a business and I knew Bryon could help or point in the right direction! My latest, my most important - I have just sent my daughter and son in law to Bryon for advice on selling their house! I trust that Bryon will get them the best deal, give them the same honesty, respect and communication that I've come to expect from him.

Not only would I recommend Bryon to a friend or family, he would be the first person I'd call if I was to sell again.

Thank you for your hard work, positive attitude and honesty Bryon!
